I briefly thought of backdating a bunch of photo posts, one for every day of our recent camping holiday but realised that’d be a lot of work (not to mention more evidence of my self-diagnosed OCD regarding my “must post daily” goal.)
Anyhow, I thought I’d post just a few highlights in a single post instead.
Went on a trail ride at Kenosee Lake…
Shea’s parents celebrated their 47th wedding anniversary during our holiday by joining us on the trail ride and then a relaxing day at Kenosee Beach (well, as relaxing as you can be in a place that recently had a confirmed Covid diagnosis!)
My parents surprised me by visiting for my birthday weekend (dad broke his foot about a month ago kaboshing their plans to bring their own camper but meaning we got to test just how many people could sleep in our new camper!)
I’m not sure what I’ll call it but if I ever release an Americana album, this will be the cover image (luckily my father-in-law brought out his log splitter one day so I didn’t have to risk losing a toe using any of these implements!)…
The lesser known “BBT” sandwich – Bannock, Bacon and Tomato – one of numerous amazing meals we had during our trip including a seafood boil, steak, fish tacos, bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin, fresh-made hash browns and of course, endless hotdogs!
Enjoying a beautiful hot day on the boat…
Having a birthday in mid-July means I often get to celebrate it while we’re camping…
I’m biased but I think my kids are pretty darn cute!
Pace has come out of his shell a bit. I’m not sure he’d ever let his sister and two friends do his hair any other year!
Pace’s love of parkour and “flippy shit” has never changed though!
I was fascinated by this guy and his homemade DIY fishing boat. It even had a remote control so he could leave it idling on the water while he got his truck to load it then bring it right up on a trailer!
No doubt camping is a very “white” activity so very happy to see the increasing diversity in our campground and doubly so since we’re in the heart of Saskatchewan’s conservative oil patch where I think they issue “Fuck Trudeau” bumper stickers right at the dealership! We saw people from a wide range of cultural backgrounds during our holiday including a group of Filipinos who entertained a group of lucky passerbys by flying a large remote controlled airplane over the boat launch at sunset one evening…
